Boot's up fine, but there's interference on the CRT. It looks like a bunch of lines and sometimes dots. I assumed it was due to some bad capacitors so I opened it up to take a look. Well, looks like someone already replaced pretty much all the capacitors with little SMD types.
Here is a couple of pictures of the board...
...And a video of the symptom I am experiencing
I'm thinking this is either the video circuitry on the logic board, the PSU, or the analogue board. I don't really want to mess with the analogue board, I don't wanna be exposed to any high voltages. Should I get this sent somewhere to replace them? I am able to solder but I don't want to screw this baby up. I'm actually surprised how little corrosion there is inside here, and someone already removed the PRAM battery so I guess they knew what they were doing. Worst fear avoided!
Any help would be appreciated!
